Data Warehouse is Populated Automatically

BusinessObjects reports for CA Data Protection and iConsole dashboards are based on event data in the data warehouse. This event data has been extracted and transformed from source tables in the CMS database.

When the data warehouse is enabled, CA Data Protection automatically schedules jobs to populate the data warehouse with event data. By default, these data warehousing jobs run during a daily off-peak processing window. Depending on the system configuration, typical processing speeds can be up to a 200,000 events in 5 minutes.

• On CMSs with less than 100,000 events, CA Data Protection processes all events when the scheduled job first runs.
• On CMSs with over 100,000 events, CA Data Protection prioritizes events captured in the last 3 days. CA Data Protection process these events when the scheduled job first runs. It then gradually processes the remaining older events whenever a scheduled job runs.

By default, the off-peak processing window starts at midnight and lasts for 300 minutes. If required, you can change the default job parameters and job frequency. See the 'Advanced Configuration' section for details.
